"In our busy and over -burdened world, there is something so meaningful about the conscious act of a giving oneself over to immersion in an art form. As I watch people dedicate themselves to studying dance in this intensive way, I realize that I'm witnessing a deliberate surrendering of old ways of understanding and being; a desire to" break out of the box", and leave constrictions past behind.

You can use this dance form to change the world. "
